heap-buffer overflow when searching for regex @\*

Hi, When compiling the 'info' program or GNU nano with -fsanitize=address, then searching in either of the programs for the regex "@\*" (without the quotes) causes an abortion in gnulib's re_search_internal() at lib/regexec.c:764. To reproduce, configure texinfo-6.8 with CFLAGS="-g -O0

[PATCH 2/2] bootstrap, gnulib-tool: use https instead of insecure rsync

The rsync command does not do any authentication and thus allows man-in-the-middle attacks. Better use wget over https, although this is slower. * build-aux/bootstrap (download_po_files, po_download_command_format): Don't try using rsync; always use wget over https to fetch PO files. *

[PATCH 1/2] bootstrap, gnulib-tool: correct the translations wget command

Using the -np (--no-parent) option doesn't prevent wget from traversing the given URL to a default depth of 5, and since the domain directory contains a href="/latest/" link, this means that wget searches through all domains anyway and will also download PO files that are meant for other packages.
